Established in 1991, Kingfisher Lodge has been guiding anglers on the Bighorn River for 27 years. We believe the best way to turn a Big Sky country experience into memories you cherish forever is a combination of outstanding guides, world renowned trout fishing, great food and comfortable accommodations. Our commitment to hospitality runs deep. We promise to exceed your expectations. Let us become your new tradition.
Fishing the river — it all starts with a 21 mile stretch of calcium-rich water with an average of 4,000 fish per mile. Where you'll cast for trout that average 14”-18” with the possibility of a 24” trophy lurking just a cast away. While summer is an amazing experience on the river, especially with a root beer float in hand, some of the best fishing can be had in the late fall and early spring.
Fishing the lake — this reservoir is one of the best-kept secrets in the United States. The scenic beauty is second to none with canyon walls soaring up to 1,000 feet above waters loaded with a variety of species. The fishing really is as thrilling as the view. You can hook anything from smallmouth bass, carp, crappie to cat fish. We offer lake trips from mid-July through August, whether you spend a whole trip "up top" or just one of your days."
